Ratings and reviews

I've had phones with Google Assistant for years. It always worked seamlessly until a few months ago. It doesn't answer me now, won't let me retrain my voice, and the app settings are not configured correctly. What is going on with your programming, Google? Too many apps downloaded from Play store no longer work right. And I'm not the only one having three problems!!

Using A Galaxy S22 Ultra with android 14 os. After installing, I tried to open the app, and I got a white screen with the message "isn't supported for this device". At the bottom of the screen, there is a blue rectangle with the word Close in white. I cannot send feedback the way you suggested because the Assistant App does not open. That is my complaint. Thanks!

Personally, I don't care for speech-to-text services. This app does get it right most of the time when decifering you're personal lexicon into text, at least far more accurate than others. Obviously it's a necessary evil for hands free activities, driving and other phone free activities.... So if you prefer not to type if you can avoid it ... This is the app for you.
